D yu still remember the summer hliday last year? When yu think back n it, yu might think f many f yur happy times. But hw d yu stre these things in yur mind? By using yur memry. Memry is the ability t remember things. Memrizing happens in a special area in ur brain. When smething happens, yur brain recrds (记录) the imprtant infrmatin and puts it in that area. That is what we call “memry”.
Scientists say that there are tw kinds f memry—shrt­term memry and lng­term memry. Yur shrt­term memry can nly last fr a few secnds t a few minutes. But lng­term memry is able t save infrmatin fr a lng perid f time. Peple usually remember with shrt­term memry, and then frget things quickly after they experience them. They learn abut smething ne day, but frget half f it the next day. A week later, they remember just a third f what they have learnt. S peple frget things easily withut memrizing again and again.
Scientists agree that peple remember things in different ways. Sme remember things better with the help f pictures. Others remember better when they take in the infrmatin by hearing it. But ne thing is fr sure, if yu remember things with different ways tgether, yu can get a better result. Fr example, try imaging pictures with English wrds, and at the same time listening t recrdings f the wrds. Maybe studying English wn’t be a difficult thing.

B．By taking in infrmatin with smell.
C．By cnnecting pictures with English wrds.
D．By remembering with the help f pictures and sunds.
